Ryoko is a temperamental powerful space pirate, highly dangerous, but she manages to be sweet in ways as well. She is, I feel, the major contender amongst Tenchi's numerous suitors. Sure, she's only one of the two major ones along with Ayeka... but I can't help but believe she should have the best chance. In the OAVs this was a more legitimate belief because she had cared immensely for him throughout his entire life. Everyone else came later. In Tenchi Universe she came at about the same time as Ayeka, but she still seems the one who is most... devoted? She was willing to risk her life to help him save a rival. That's admirable, and a true sign of love. Awwwww/ vomit, I know.
I tend to think what might happen is that Tenchi will marry Ayeka for the sake of Jurai, but he'll truly love and have fun with Ryoko. Assuming the two girls ever calm down enough to share him, that is. They might also need to give him to Washu for the occasional experiment, of course. Ryoko clearly would be the fun one. She can rob a bank without a problem, she can get through pretty much anything out in space, she can consume ridiculously large amounts of alcohol but maybe that isn't fun. She's not the type to sit around living a dull life of custom, unless it's while she's waiting to win Tenchi. Which she does, and that is yet more proof of her devotion.
